GrassProtecta® slip resistant is an improved heavy duty thick polyethylene mesh for reinforcing grassed surfaces prone to wear, rutting and smearing. The oscillated mesh structure has been designed to increase traction and improve slip resistance by up to 97% compared to standard straight oriented meshes.

Mesh after Installation.

After 1 week grass starts to grow through the mesh.

After a few weeks the grass has fully grown though.

Benefits

• High level of reinforcement – up to 8 tonnes per axle (imposed load)
• Ideal for permanent or temporary applications
• Fast and cost effective installation compared to plastic paving grids
• No excavation or soil removal necessarily required
• Up to 97% improved slip-resistance compared to the standard grass protection meshes

Uses

• Grass car parks
• Pedestrian paths
• Disabled access routes
• Light aircraft taxiways
• Equestrian surfaces
• Grass verges
• Caravan parks
• Front lawn parking

GrassProtecta® is supplied on 2m x 20m, 1m x 10m rolls and in cut sheets in two thicknesses (11mm & 14mm) as determined by the application and manufactured from partly recycled UV stabilised polyethylene (minimum 20% recycled polymer).

Installation is simple; after cutting the grass short, the mesh is unrolled and pinned to the surface using metal U-Pins or plastic pegs. By allowing plants to grow through its apertures, GrassProtecta® allows the sward to intertwine with the mesh filaments creating a strong, discreetly reinforced surface capable of withstanding vehicle loads, limiting damage and reducing soil compaction. GrassProtecta® can also be installed onto newly landscaped areas and seeded as required.

Boddingtons strongly advise that newly installed GrassProtecta® areas should be left unused until the grass has grown through the mesh apertures ensuring a strong interlock with the grass and mesh filaments is achieved - normally after a few weeks during the growing.
